2019/20 YQQ Art Program Artist Application

This is a call for submission, for the November, 2019, Comox Airport Show.

We are extremely grateful to the Comox Airport Authority, for placing a high priority on showcasing the visual arts, of Vancouver Island, as part of their tourism marketing.

It seems appropriate that “Life On The Edge” be the theme for this show.

We are welcoming visitors to the edge of Canada, encompassing the edge of Vancouver Island, where the world can engage in a multitude of first class “edgy” experiences.

The possibilities for interpretation are vast, when considering “Life On Edge”. We invite artists to submit two and three dimensional work that offers visitors to Vancouver Island, a glimpse of what we have to offer.

Eligibility:

Open to all artists residing in the Comox Valley Airport’s catchment area of Northern Vancouver Island. Boundaries include Parksville, Port Alberni and Ucluelet in the south; Powell River to the east (including Texada, Denman, Hornby, Quadra, Cortes, Alert Bay and Sointula); the Pacific Ocean to the west; and the Pacific Ocean to the north.

Submission Deadline: August 31, 2019
